A comprehensive diagnostic exam is the first step in designing
your customized treatment plan. Dr. Gutierrez discusses your
overall health, any recent changes, and your symptoms. He uses
imaging and a basic neurological exam to learn more about the
source and type of lower back pain. While pain medication can
mask the symptoms of low back pain, true relief requires
addressing the root cause. Lifestyle modifications can help,
including weight loss, targeted stretching, posture
improvements, and getting plenty of low-impact exercises. Many
men and women benefit from spinal manipulation. Dr. Gutierrez
uses both his hands and specialized chiropractic devices to
correct spinal misalignment and restore optimal back function.
Massage therapy, acupuncture, physical therapy, and other
noninvasive treatments can go a long way toward reducing low
back pain.
If you’re tired of shaping your days to accommodate low back
pain, book a consultation with Dr. Gutierrez today, either
online or by phone.
